Who trusts China? The same country that said Covid wasn’t a big deal then turned around and had some of the strictest covid precautions. I don’t trust a single thing coming from China’s government.

china is complete communist. being all over the place like what fraud leftie did with covid. put a mask on-test positive for covid, get vaxxed and you can take your mask off- tests positive for covid, put your mask back on- tests positive for covid, take second jab- tests positive for covid, put two masks on- tests positive for covid, now get booster it also sounds cool- tests positive for covid............need another booster

its a form of mind control. keeping things confusing and it breaks some people. they give up and just turn into non thinking order followers also the fear covid brought

The Purpose Of Political Correctness Is To Humiliate
Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

"Were going to be very good to China"

An interesting 180.

I suspect Tim, Jeff, etc. all took him to the backroom for a little talk on who runs America.

China has done many bad things. It has also grown at an incredible rate over the last 50 years, you could distrust everything China says and you'd still have to accept this point because there is evidence everywhere. It is undeniable that the Chinese government does bad things and some good things

It's not a question of whether China is trustworthy, they are not. It's a question of whether they are less untrustworthy than the US. You can say China lied about COVID. Can you say the US is not lying about "reciprocal" tariffs?

I can say that on any non-Chinese organization that calculates or assesses government corruption that the US is rated much less corrupt than China by a wide margin.

What are the US lying about with reciprocal Tarrifs? Which part?

Is that a rhetorical question or are you genuinely asking what the US is lying about? You believe the tariffs are truthfully portrayed by the US government?

They are incredibly disingenuous when they announce or talk about tariffs. WERE GUNNA PUT 245% on GINA!

Fine print - syringes and EV's only which already had ultra high rates on them from Briden so putting it to 245% has no relevance anyways.

Its all bluster when tossing around those ultra high rates. Its for the news, for the portion of his voter base that can't read, etc.
